Glacial Melt, 9x12 Original Fluid Acrylic on Gallery‑Wrapped Canvas (Unframed, Finished Edges) – Embrace the Unknown Series – Theresa Henderson (2022)
$0.00
Frosty whites fracture into luminous glacier-blue rivulets, charting the slow surrender of ice to water. Henderson pours an opaque titanium layer, then scores the wet surface with a hair-dryer blast, pushing pigment into jagged, lightning-bolt channels. Into these channels she feeds diluted cerulean mixed with gloss medium; the thinner paint races along the carved paths, leaving translucent corridors that feel both fluid and crystalline.
Where blue meets white, lace cells shimmer like air bubbles imprisoned in ancient ice now racing to the surface. A faint veil of smoky quartz drifts near the top, evoking distant storm clouds poised to drop new snow even as old layers liquefy below. Glacial Melt holds this tension—loss and renewal, solidity and movement—reminding us that great, seemingly fixed bodies are always in quiet motion.
